Title: Multilayer access control security system
Inventor: TERZIS ANDREAS
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 2004-05-28
Abstract: A computer-based system provides secure, configurable access to computer network resources. A human-readable language is provided for defining access policy rules. Rules in this language are converted in an automated fashion into filters applied within the various subsystems and components in a multi-layer security system. Network users are authenticated by an access control security system that obtains basic information about that user. Based on the user ID, a set of abstract policies can be retrieved. The retrieved policies are associated with the user and the groups associated with that user. Based on the retrieved rules, a set of rules for multiple layers of the network are generated and applied to those subsystems. Two or more of the subsystems may be placed in series with different types of processing occurring in each of the subsystems, reducing the workload of subsequent subsystems.

IPC: A63B59/70
Filed: 2006-02-14
Abstract: A hockey stick is generally formed of a shaft and a blade. The shaft is hollow throughout and supports a grip area at one end and a blade at the opposite end. The shaft handle includes a grip and the blade includes a hosel at the opposite end. Similarly, the blade has a heel at one end and a toe at the opposite end. The blade edge profile is flat and provides full contact along the playing surface at all distances from the body of the player. When the player moves the stick forward or backward along the surface, the blade will maintain full horizontal contact with the playing surface. Increasing the surface area of the blade on the puck benefits the player's puck handling skills, providing better puck control, increasing shooting and scoring opportunities, and providing a learning tool to aid in the development of the player. The blade generally wears along the length of the edge between the heel and the toe.

Abstract: A method of creating small particles by a technology referred to here as "violent focusing" is disclosed, along with devices for generating such violent focusing. In general, the method comprises the steps of forcing a first fluid out of an exit opening of the feeding channel to create a fluid stream. The exit opening is positioned such that the fluid flowing out of the channel flows toward and out of an exit orifice of a pressure chamber which surrounds the exit opening of the feeding channel, and is filled with an atomizing fluid. An atomizing fluid such as a gas is directed towards the first fluid stream in approximately orthogonal directions and surrounding the circumference of the first fluid stream from all sides. The first fluid flow is broken into particles which have dimensions which are smaller than the dimensions of this fluid stream.

Title: Record carrier, system, method and program for conditional access to data stored on the record carrier
Inventor: YOKOTA KAORU
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2004-10-05
Abstract: The record carrier of the present invention has a storage area for storing data. The record carrier receives an access requisition to the storage area from a terminal device having the record carrier attached thereto, acquires an access condition indicating authorization to access the storage area, judges whether or not the access requisition satisfies the access condition.
